DOJ Prosecutors Failed to Identify Crime in Attempted Indictment of Democratic Lawmakers, Raising Alarms Over Rule of Law
A recent attempt by prosecutors to indict six Democratic lawmakers for a video reminding military service members of their duty to refuse unlawful orders has stunningly failed. The prosecution, reportedly led by Janine Piro, could not even name a single crime or statute allegedly broken when pressed by defense attorneys, leading to a grand jury's refusal to indict. This profound incompetence, while initially humorous, is raising serious alarms among commentators who warn against complacency in the face of what they describe as a dangerous abuse of power and an authoritarian threat to democratic norms.
